Media is an important source for representing any country and its political system.
However, its importance increases in a democratic political system. There is a
relationship of dependency between media and political system. When a media
become an autonomous function, it starts to strengthen the democratic
institutions and democratic system of a country.
In Pakistan, media is working freely and independently. In case of electronic media, there are a number of channels including news, sports, entertainment, etc. So, it is the responsibility of the media to highlight those issues which are good for the public and discourage all unethical factors of the society. Media should be sensitive to represent the situation of the country towards the world. Pakistani media tells the world exactly what we are, what our norms are and what are our values and culture.
Role of media in Pakistan is getting quite irresponsible, as there are many talk shows and political debate are there on different news channels every time but sometimes it seems that they are crossing their limits. Media is supposed to be responsible for the present society, their norms, and values and so on. People are what they see around them. So instead spreading exaggeration, Pakistani media should resolve the problems with positivity.
Pakistani News media is playing the same destructive role as were played by the Muslim leader of Colonel Time by protesting against the foreign education and adopting rational science. One of the major programmes of our media is to make sure that people do not think and use their intelligence, reason, understanding and sense of their own. In other word, make people stupid and help few to rule. This programme is called “Do as you get”.
Media which uses this programme extensively in Pakistan. In such an environment, it is very easy for Big Powers to impose their agendas on the nation without any problem. These goals and agendas may be to get the political sovereignty, natural resources, occupy the trade routes or to propagate their positions, etc. but people think feels as if this is for religion. Main source of spreading this programme is through news channels. More people watch theses channels, more they are become zombies. News channels are full of fun, entertainment, color and gossips, which makes the people to attract more towards them. This is a nice move by media to make the people waiting for such programmes.
In a country like Pakistan, which is facing the threats of terrorism, religious extremism and voilance and in the country where the norms and institution of democracy are not well established, media should play its role with a lot of responsibility. These threats are making the system dysfunctional and also decreasing the harmony and stability of society. So this is an additional responsibility of media that its operation should not lead towards the negativity. So, Pakistani social and electronic media should learn from the experience of other societies ridden by many conflicts. Pakistani media should play a positive role to strengthen the political stability and establish democratic institutions and a real Islamic and democratic society in our country.
